COMMUNICATED

Ed. BEACON 1T has been many
years since | requested space in your
valuable paper, to communicate win
my fcllsw citizens concerning matters
of public interest, but as the time is
near at hand TO select, or at least TO
nominate our COUNTY officers for anoth-
err term, | feel that | must have a wort
TO say. and ! trust yOu will indulge
me. What feel particular interest in,
Is the office of Assessor. All land
owners in Noxubcc know what an
al and expense we have under
gone in the past in having n proper
assessment OF our lands, many par
ties having TO go before the County
Board more than oncc to have the list
rcctified. and after all our troublc,..w
would sometimes find IL lands on
the delinquent list. In selecting a
man for this position, | deem it a mat.
ter of the greatest importance, and
tax PAYERS should put this work in tho
hands of a competent and a reliable
man. Honest tax payers demand q
fair, correct and complete assessment,
the best interests of the people require
this, and MS good citizens let us lay -
side all personal preferences, on nc
count of Friendship, or relationship or
M other feeling, and exercise our
hest Judgment in voting for the right
man, have no desire to recommend
any one. | am onlv anxious TO have the
office in the hands OF n man who VIII
know what he has to do aud will do it
